# Complete paired-lattice feasibility with projector anchors

This contribution was produced by Nick Petalas. Apache-2.0.

Claim type: scoped algebraic proof, with finite executable corroboration.
No multiplication theorem or new kappa is claimed.

## Interface and theorem

Put R=Z_(2)={a/b in Q : b is odd}, and v2(2)=1. A full R-lattice Lambda
in Q^m is the R-span of a rational basis. A paired lattice is Lambda direct-sum
Lambda, with H before D. Supply a finite list of rational 2m by 2m applied
matrices G_k. Include every inverse actually applied. Stability means inclusion,
not equality; an unapplied inverse need not preserve the lattice.

The additional hypothesis is an explicit complete family of anchors:

```text
rank(P_i)=1, P_i^2=P_i,
P_i P_j=0 for i != j, sum_(i=1..m) P_i=I.
```

Every P_i must occur as one of the four m by m blocks of an actually applied
G_k. For example, an actual paid label n_(P_i) supplies such an upper-right
block. An unapplied projector is not an anchor.

Choose a nonzero rational c_i in image(P_i) and form C=[c_1 ... c_m].
The identities imply C is invertible and C^-1 P_i C=E_ii. For every nonzero
entry t at row r, column s of diag(C,C)^-1 G_k diag(C,C), retain the edge

```text
s mod m -> r mod m, weight v2(t).
```

Parallel edges and self loops are allowed. The following are equivalent:

1. Some full common paired R-lattice is stable under every G_k.
2. Integers a_i satisfy a_(r mod m)-a_(s mod m)<=v2(t) on every edge.
3. The graph has no negative directed cycle.

A feasible potential supplies Lambda=C diag(2^a_i) R^m. A negative cycle
excludes every full common paired rational lattice under the anchor hypothesis,
including non-diagonal lattices. This strengthens rejection of diagonal gauges
in the original coordinates.

## Proof of completeness

Stability of Lambda^2 under a block matrix implies stability of Lambda under
each block: apply it to (x,0) and (0,x). Hence every P_i preserves Lambda, and

```text
Lambda = direct-sum_i P_i Lambda.
```

Each summand is finitely generated over R on the line Q c_i. Write its
generators as q_j c_i. The minimum valuation a_i of the nonzero q_j exists.
A generator attaining it is 2^a_i u c_i with u and u^-1 in R. Thus the
module contains 2^a_i c_i, and every generator belongs to 2^a_i R c_i.
Consequently P_i Lambda=2^a_i R c_i. Every possible invariant lattice
therefore has the displayed form. This is the new completeness step.

In that basis the entry t becomes t*2^(a_s-a_r), with indices reduced
modulo m. It is in R exactly when its edge inequality holds, proving 1 iff 2.
Summing inequalities around a negative cycle is impossible. Conversely, add
a source with zero-weight edges to every vertex. Without negative cycles,
minimum paths can be chosen simple by removing repeated-vertex cycles.
Their integer distances satisfy every edge inequality, proving 2 iff 3.
Subtracting a_1 from all a_i preserves the inequalities.

The graph argument is the classical difference-constraint argument already
used by ywz65's [PR #2671](https://github.com/CrocSwap/integer-mult-bounds/pull/2671).
The contribution here is completeness over all common paired lattices in the
anchored class. Decomposition by orthogonal idempotents and the rank-one
ideal calculation are classical ingredients, not new general invariants.
Bellman-Ford takes O(m E) relaxations for E nonzero entries, in addition to
exact rational basis construction and conjugation. This is an arithmetic
operation bound, not a bit-time or fixed-tape tariff.

## An unbounded separation from original-coordinate diagonal gauges

For m=2^k, k>=1, let H be the Sylvester Walsh matrix:

```text
H[x,y]=(-1)^(binary_dot(x,y)), H^-1=H/m,
P_i=H E_ii H^-1, G_i=n_(P_i)=[[I,P_i],[0,I]].
```

For distinct column labels, pairing summands differing in a bit where the
labels differ proves H^T H=mI. Thus the P_i are complete orthogonal rank-one
projectors. Every diagonal entry of every P_i is 1/m. A diagonal similarity
leaves these entries unchanged. No original-coordinate paired-diagonal basis
can therefore make all G_i 2-integral: every projector gives negative self
loops of weight -k.

The non-diagonal paired basis diag(H,H) sends G_i to n_(E_ii), an integral
matrix. The anchored test accepts. This holds in unbounded dimension, beyond
the checked m=2,4,8 examples.

There is no paid-rank saving in this family. The exact rational group-label
identity is

```text
n_(P_m) ... n_(P_1) = n_(sum_i P_i) = n_I.
```

Each paid upper block has rank one. Running this independently on W data
roles costs mW paid rank, with no auxiliary scalar role. This is a literal
rational group-label identity, not an inference from a finite representation
of a formal group algebra. A failed diagonal filter can miss an applicable
obstruction; it is not itself evidence of a saving.

## Existing Borel bound and its boundaries

Only after the source-model premises of
[PR #2613](https://github.com/CrocSwap/integer-mult-bounds/pull/2613) and
[PR #2671](https://github.com/CrocSwap/integer-mult-bounds/pull/2671) are supplied,
the certified basis may be used in their existing rank-functional argument.
Apply the same paired basis to every scalar role. It commutes with scalar
mixing, preserves block-lower free maps, and preserves paid rational ranks.
Unit labels n_I remain exactly n_I. The source's reduction then gives
total paid rank >=mW for W such unit targets, including its permitted finite
scalar workspace. The rank functional, auxiliary allowance and allowance
for singular reductions of free maps retain the source authors' credit.
This package proves the common-lattice premise on a larger decidable class;
it does not re-audit that rank bound or its predecessors.

For a general target, integrality of its transformed HD block does not imply
invertibility modulo two. For example n_(2I) is integral with zero HD block
modulo two. Rational invertibility of an applied matrix likewise does not
imply integrality of its inverse.

The theorem requires one paired lattice shared across scalar roles and a
complete actual rank-one anchor family. Different H/D lattices, role-specific
lattices, non-lattice representations and unanchored inputs are outside its
completeness claim. A failed anchor premise is an unsupported input, not an
impossibility certificate. The complete applied list, legal native/model
operations and a formal word's full endpoint are separate caller obligations.

This analytic basis is not executed or declared free. Physical conversion,
stock, precision, tape movement, native lowering, recursive compiler closure
and analytic recovery remain implementation obligations. No selected supplier
is mapped into this class, and no complete supplier invoice is supplied.

# Complete paired-lattice tests with projector anchors

This contribution was produced by Nick Petalas. Apache-2.0.

Claim type: scoped algebraic proof with exact finite corroboration. No new kappa.

A complete family of rank-one projector blocks makes the common paired-lattice
problem decidable by one graph test. This extends the diagonal-only filter in
ywz65's [PR #2671](https://github.com/CrocSwap/integer-mult-bounds/pull/2671) to
every common paired rational lattice under an explicit anchor hypothesis.
The predecessor's test and rank bound are cited, not re-audited.

Put R=Z_(2), the rationals with odd denominators. Supply m orthogonal rank-one
projectors summing to I, each present as an actual block of an applied 2m by 2m
matrix. Every invariant lattice splits along their eigenlines. In an eigenbasis
C it is C diag(2^a_i) R^m, so existence is equivalent to the absence of a negative
cycle in the valuation graph. A checked negative cycle excludes every common
paired lattice in this anchored class. [PROOF.md](PROOF.md) proves this for every
finite rational input and gives the source-model boundaries.

The Walsh-projector family separates the two filters for every m=2^k>=2.
All projector diagonals are 1/m, so every original-coordinate diagonal gauge
fails. The non-diagonal Walsh basis makes all projectors integral. The m
rank-one paid labels multiply exactly to n_I. The existing mW rank floor
applies when its complete Borel-model premises are supplied. This is a family
missed by the diagonal filter, not a paid-rank improvement.

## Reproduction and evidence

From the repository root, with CPython 3.12 and the standard library:

```sh
/Users/nick/git/integer-mult-bounds/.venv/bin/python3.12 -I -W error -B research/projector-anchored-paired-lattices/verify.py
/Users/nick/git/integer-mult-bounds/.venv/bin/python3.12 -I -O -W error -B research/projector-anchored-paired-lattices/verify.py
/Users/nick/git/integer-mult-bounds/.venv/bin/python3.12 -B scripts/research_package.py --package research/projector-anchored-paired-lattices
/Users/nick/git/integer-mult-bounds/.venv/bin/python3.12 -B scripts/check_research_commit.py --package research/projector-anchored-paired-lattices --check-source-history
```

Another CPython 3.12 path can replace the absolute path. The direct marker is
`PASS_PROJECTOR_ANCHORED_PAIRED_LATTICES`; registered replay also prints
`PASS_REGISTERED_RESEARCH_PACKAGE`. Each direct run generates a JSON stdout
receipt bound to every package file's SHA256, without writing files or importing
predecessor executables. All contracts remain enabled under optimized Python.

The replay enumerates all 256 directed two-vertex graphs with each edge weight
in {absent,-1,0,1}. Independent min-plus closure and all three normalized
potentials (0,-1),(0,0),(0,1) agree. Four rational charts and all four matrix
block placements, with diagonal placements restricted to invertible graph
matrices, give 3,552 certificate problems: 1,528 feasible and 2,024 infeasible.
The separate checker reads original matrix entries and imports no graph solver.
The replay also checks Walsh dimensions 2,4,8, thirteen rejected input/certificate
controls and three scope controls. The generated receipt records these counts.
The quantified proof, rather than this finite corpus, establishes completeness.

The controls cover omitted precision shifts, wrong eigenbases, malformed cycles,
unapplied anchors in both producer and checker, non-projector anchor families,
inexact or oversized inputs, singular free reductions, an actually applied
inverse and the difference between integral and unit targets.

The public interfaces are `lattice.solve(anchors, applied)` and
`check.check(anchors, applied, certificate)`. The checker returns True for a
checked invariant lattice and False for a checked impossibility cycle.
Invalid inputs or certificates raise ValueError. The implementation accepts
1<=m<=8, at most 64 applied matrices, and integer/Fraction entries with numerator
and denominator lengths at most 64 bits. Rejected bounds are unsupported inputs,
not negative mathematical results. Certificates contain exact Fraction bases
and Python integers; a JSON interchange API is not supplied.

## Scope, sources and credit

The `bit-new-register-model` card is changed to an analytic obstruction filter
for rational Borel words. This is a side result on a register-model blocker,
without a new native alphabet or selected supplier. The base is canonical main
`19fdb086ea96af9a9f87936a2b888e10af4ed810`, priority revision 8.
[SOURCES.json](SOURCES.json) pins the predecessor proof and README, catalogue and
selected record. The source's explicit non-diagonal-lattice direction motivates
the question; its original diagonal-only statement retains its scope.

Credit ywz65 for #2671's paired-diagonal graph filter, Sagar Thakrar for
#2613's 2-integral Borel corollary, eumemic for #288's general lattice method,
and Swapnil Jain for the retained rank functional. Orthogonal-idempotent
decomposition, the rank-one ideal calculation, Walsh orthogonality and graph
feasibility are classical. The contribution is the complete anchored interface,
separating family and certificate implementation. No literature-priority claim
is made for those ingredients. Existing files and credit remain unchanged.

The theorem requires one paired lattice shared across scalar roles and a
complete actual anchor family. The caller must supply the full applied list,
legal operations and formal endpoint. General unanchored inputs, distinct H/D
lattices and non-lattice representations are not decided. No physical basis
conversion, precision/stock/tape bill, native realization, selected scientific
replay, compiler or outer admission is supplied. The five selected framework
assumptions remain. Independent human and formal proof-kernel review are unclaimed.

All loops are bounded by the fixed corpus, matrix dimensions, applied-list limit
or at most m graph passes/cycle edges. Functions stay below 60 physical lines.
Python's dynamic exact arithmetic is a managed-allocation deviation from fixed
memory discipline; finite dimensions, input bit bounds and corpus bound live
resources. There is no recursion, dynamic code generation, network access or
scientific subprocess. Warning-strict execution and package replay are the
applicable diagnostics.

## Open next questions

1. Does an actual candidate Borel word expose a complete family of projector
blocks at legal contacts? Extract its whole applied list and actual anchors
before testing it. Native membership and endpoint validity remain prerequisites.
2. Can completeness extend to higher-rank orthogonal projectors? Start with two
rank-two blocks. Their invariant summands need internal lattices, so scalar
potentials alone no longer prove completeness.
